29 juneFrom week 9 I have not kept my diary, been away, and phone stolen. Last weeks I have been collecting some shopping bags of sheep manure, and drilled holes in the ground to fill them with sheep manure. I think the plant has found it. June has been extremely warm and dry, plant has had a week of slower growth but now it is growing faster than ever before. The first sidebranches I let it make are somewhere at the height of my nose. I will be able to walk around my plant under the crown. There is now so much force in the top that the sidebranches grow as fast as the tip, so I guess this plant wont have so much of a main cola, but rather a spherical crown. Now that the top is going to grow like crazy, I hope the stem will grow thicker accordingly, to carry the weight of an expanding crown. In order to make the stem stronger I train the plant, I bend the plant in various directions, to simulate wind, hoping that this will stimulate the strengthening of the stem.Fertiliser for free at about twenty bicycle minutes from my house there are sheep on a former see dike. Good for melons and weedplants.
Plant is growing very well under lamps and when available, the sun. The shape of the leaves is different from previous Frisian Dew, the fingers are broader. Does this mean that this one is more Indica?
@DutchPassion_Official,Thanks for your reaction, you do care for your babies 😉 Don't worry, when I had to leave the seedling alone, I covered the soil with a layer of sand, to reduce evaporation. I have a poking hole just above the bottom of the bucket to check moisture.
@Grow4Releaf,The top leaves are still green, the lower leaves are becoming yellow. Would it mean that the cuttings are sacrificing those leaves for the nutrients necessary for making roots?
@WatercanWampa,Thanks! That is allso a bit of perspective, because my shoes are further away from the phone than the leaves, but still, they are bigger than my hands. Because I want my plant to grow high, I pruned all sidebranches this morning, (I am trying to make clones) now all the nutrients and water go to one single growing tip, so she will probably make even bigger ones. She is allso standing in the ground for a week spreading her roots.
